After blowing a 9-0 lead, the Dodgers finally prevailed over the Phillies, 12-10. The score was 9-9 going into the ninth inning when the Dodgers loaded the sacks on consecutive singles by Derrel Thomas, Gary Thomasson and Steve Garvey. Thomas scored the go-ahead run on a passed ball and Mickey Hatcher followed with a two-run double.

The Dodgers took an early lead on a pair of homers by Dusty Baker -- a three-run blast in the first inning and two-run shot in the sixth. The Phils were aided in their comeback by a three-run homer by Greg Luzinski in the sixth and solo clout by Bob Boone before tying the game in the eighth on a two-run pinch-single by John Vukovich.
